Chris Papin, founder of Papin CPA and Papin Law, shares how growing up in an entrepreneurial family, coaching sports, and his unique dual credentials inform how he guides business owners. Chris explains the difference between just filing taxes and being a true tax strategist, the mindset behind scaling a successful company, and how to build the right support systems from day one. Together, Chris and Michael dig deep into why 85% of small businesses fail within three years—and what the successful 15% do differently. They also discuss the dangers of following outdated advice, the real meaning of work-life balance, and how to start a career in tax or law the smart way.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Be a Guest Are you a successful business owner, entrepreneur, or professional with insights to share?
